Later, gators: Alligators found in NY supermarket parking lot

Alligators are a common enough sight in Florida. But in a New York parking lot? Rare. At least until two showed up at a Pathmark supermarket parking lot on Long Island two days in a row: a 2- to 3-foot-long gator on Tuesday, and then a 3- to 4-foot-long one on Wednesday.

Luckily, responding officers were able to catch the animals and turn them over to the Emergency Services Unit.

While some gators are welcome, even making a splash at kids' pool parties (it's true, check out the video), these alligators on the loose are definitely doing a good job of scaring the locals.
